Memo: Nye (1975) stated:- but cited as 'flavago Hüb.', an incorrect authorship. Poole (1989) included GORTYNA in the subfamily AMPHIPYRINAE, subsequently restricted to the genus AMPHIPYRA by Kitching & Rawlins (1999) in Kristensen. Other genera formerly treated in the subfamily AMPHIPYRINAE are treated as HADENINAE by Kitching & Rawlins (1999). Poole (1989) included CNEPHOZETA Billberg, 1820 (as GNEPHOZETA Billberg, 1820); OCHRIA Hübner, 1821; and XANTHOECIA Hampson, 1908 as junior synonyms of GORTYNA Ochsenheimer, 1816. Poole (1989) included 8 species in the genus GORTYNA.
